American Hero

Whoever said with great power comes great responsibility never met Melvin (Stephen Dorff), an aimless, drug- and booze-addled New Orleans resident whose telekinetic abilities are wasted on party tricks. After his ex-wife refuses to let him see their son, Melvin sobers up and sets out to fight crime in his community and finally become a hero...but at what cost? Funny and offbeat take on the superhero genre also stars Eddie Griffin, Keena Ferguson. 86 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
